How do I retain table widths in DITA Files?

Hi All,

I'm currently using FrameMaker 8 (part of ATCs 1.x) to create DITA files. When I work with tables in either topics or concepts, the width is reset every time I re-open the file. One forum mentioned that I should set the SetColumnWidthsProp in ditafm.ini to 0. I tried that and it does not work.

Is there a workaround for this?

It's very cumbersome to check the width of all the tables in all the files.

Regards,
